Abstract
The rural land protection is achieved by the agricultural farm sustainability. Wood is a resource that can provide a development of these lands through the exploitation of the short forest wood chain. The functional and the performance characterization of wood products, several not directly measurable aspects, such as the origin and the environment impacts, are the tools to achieve an improvement. This work studied technical and environmental sustainability through: a technological analysis of the wood to verify its structural use, a Life Cycle Assessment of exploitation, of transport and of building technical elements production of a platform frame construction. The result was compared with a brick traditional building. This study allowed us to quantify benefits arising from solutions of a short supply chain and of eco-design to identify further opportunities for improvement. The technological properties of wood and the environmental profile of short supply chain indicate that the use of wood in building can be developed sustainably in the rural environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
